Tips from the Community

Michèle Linton
June 17, 2024, Kay Park Pond

The money for its purchase was bequeathed to the town of Kilmarnock by former native insurance broker Alexander Kay who died in Glasgow in 1866, after whom it is named. The park opened on 9th August 1879. A product of the Victorian appetite for recreational green spaces amidst growing industrialisation, it was formerly the home of a miniature golf course, a few drinking fountains, pubs, boating in the pond and a band stand on the site. It is also home to a Burns Centre and a statue of the poet.

Situated just outside Kilmarnok, Dean Caslte and Park is a great day out. Completely free to visitors, there's a sustainable living centre, a gift shop and a cafe. There are also loads of walks and nature trails to explore around the park.
